I received information from the ventilation installer working with our general contractor that if we install a ventilation system with humidity control, only a model with a maximum capacity of 60m3/h (35 cfm) can be used, whereas without humidity control, we could use one with 100m3/h (59 cfm). These numbers don’t mean much to me. Is that a lot? Or too little? With decentralized ventilation, is it even common to operate at maximum capacity, or is that maximum capacity an important factor? I actually see a system with a humidity sensor as beneficial and would be willing to accept the lower capacity. What do you think?

This is actually only relevant in bathrooms... in living rooms or other areas, ventilation—whether with or without a humidity sensor—does not really deal with moisture issues...

I agree, the humidity sensor probably only makes sense in the bathroom. In all other rooms, you want to remove not just the moisture but also the stale air.
